Chapter 629: Chu State Is Cheating! He Is Cheating! Don’t Expect Me to Clean up This Mess Alone!
After the general of our country went to war and destroyed another country, the lieutenant of our country was so angry that he fainted.
This is probably the only time in history!
Many ministers were shocked and hurriedly called for the imperial physician.
Ying Zheng even held Wei Liao's hand, and acted like a monarch and minister cherishing each other.
Old ministers such as Han Cang curled their lips and looked disdainful when they saw this.
He collapsed just like that?
We don't know how many times we have experienced similar scenes.
After all, with Ying Chengjiao away on the expedition, this little variable is nothing!
As expected, the ministers who had just joined the Qin Dynasty had poor psychological endurance!
When Xia Wuqie hurried over, Ying Zheng immediately gave up his position to Xia Wuqie, and then took out the bamboo slips removed from the end of the second volume of the military report from his arms and looked through it again.
[Brother Wang! Brother, I seem to have gotten into trouble again o(╥﹏╥)o Brother really didn't mean it! 】
【The distance between Helu City and Xiapi City is long and communication is difficult. I really didn't know that General Jian would dig the river bank on the same day to divert water to destroy Xiapi! 】
【Otherwise, I would never have been able to break through Helu City on that day! 】
【As for why I killed the King of Chu and slaughtered all the royal family members of Chu in Helu City, it was because the King of Chu insulted my mother in his words. How could I bear it! 】
【I really really really didn't have the slightest intention to destroy Chu. I didn't even try my best, let alone break the formation myself! I really restrained myself! 】
【Who would have thought that Chu was so weak┭┮﹏┭┮I feel wronged! It was Chu who was trying to trick me! Chu bullied the honest people! 】
【Brother, you must believe me(﹏)】
【Brother, you will definitely believe me, right? 】
【I knew that you would definitely believe me (o▽)o】
【But what should I do now? I really can't think of a solution! 】
【Brother! Think of a solution quickly! I'm so panicked (ˇˇ)】
I read the private message from Ying Chengjiao again. Even though I didn't know what "touch porcelain" meant, Ying Zheng could feel more and more the grievance, injustice and nervousness of Ying Chengjiao when he wrote this letter.
How could Ying Zheng not believe Ying Chengjiao!
Looking at those vivid expressions, Ying Zheng couldn't bear to blame Ying Chengjiao anymore.
The reason why the State of Chu was destroyed was because I ordered my brother to go to war and the State of Chu was too exhausted.
What does my brother have to do with it!
Ying Zheng pressed his thumb against his temple, and murmured with regret: "I really shouldn't have ordered my brother to go to war!"
"And the situation in the world has developed like this, what should I do!"
My brother can't think of a solution, can I think of a solution!
"My plan!" Wei Liao slowly opened his eyelids, even though it was still dark in front of him, he still murmured absentmindedly: "My plan!"
Ying Zheng suppressed his thoughts, hurried back to Wei Liao, and asked with concern: "My dear, are you okay?!"
When Ying Zheng's figure appeared in the dim vision, Wei Liao cried out in a nearly collapsed voice: "My king! I resign!"
Ying Zheng held Wei Liao's hand and said repeatedly: "My dear, don't say that!"
"Imperial physician, send my dear back to the palace for treatment as soon as possible, and make sure my dear recover!"
Don't think of letting me clean up this mess alone!
All the ministers in the court, no one wants to escape!
Wei Liao held Ying Zheng's hand and looked at him earnestly and sadly: "Your Majesty, please let me go!"
"I can't do this job as a lieutenant for another day!"
Wei Liao was not retreating to advance.
Wei Liao really didn't want to do it anymore!
Wei Liao was clearly a talented sage, and he also formulated a national policy for Daqin that was enough to unify the world.
Wei Liao was confident that as long as Daqin followed the policy formulated by Wei Liao, Daqin would definitely unify the world!
But what was the result?
Now Wei Liao can only stay in the Daqin Military Academy to explain the battle formations and military tactics. His main talent would be stopped every time he was about to display it!
Heaven knows how uncomfortable Wei Liao was, he was obviously a genius and in a high position, but he could never show his strengths!
Instead of continuing to waste his talents in Daqin, Wei Liao would rather go to a small country to show his ambitions!
Ying Zheng held Wei Liao's hands tightly with both hands, and said sincerely: "My dear, if you have any needs, I will definitely agree to it!"
"I am so happy to meet you, my dear!"
"How can you just leave!"
Wei Liao's voice was extremely sad: "I have no other requests!"
"I only ask the king to speak frankly if he is dissatisfied with the plan I have made."
"If the king also thinks that the plan I have made for Daqin is feasible, then let Daqin develop according to the plan I have made!"
"I, the minister, only have these few requests!"
"My king, can you agree to me?"
Wei Liao's request was not close to humbleness.
This is completely humble!
As one of the three ministers of Daqin, Wei Liao's status in Daqin is second only to Wei Zhuang, and he should have participated in the overall planning of Daqin's future development.
After Wei Liao's advice, Ying Zheng agreed, and the national development plan agreed by Wei Zhuang and Wang Wan should also be implemented as much as possible by the whole Daqin.
However, facing Wei Liao's most basic and humble request, Ying Zheng could not give a positive response.
Ying Zheng could only answer indirectly: "My dear, don't act like this."
"Although Chang'an Jun destroyed Chu in this battle, it was not Chang'an Jun's wish, but the result of fate."
"Things in the world are full of twists and turns, let alone planning?"
"I beg the captain to collect his mind and regroup."
"How should Chang'an Jun deal with the sudden destruction of Chu? I still need the captain to discuss it carefully!"
Wei Liao shook his head in despair: "Minister, there is no plan!"
"Now that my Great Qin suddenly destroyed Chu, it seems to be expanding the territory, but it is a disaster for my Great Qin!"
"In just a few years, my Great Qin's territory has expanded nearly four times! Many grassroots officials have died on the battlefield!"
"With a vast territory, many people, and few officials, how can my Great Qin govern the people?"
"The people of Chu are now retreating to Wuyue. When Wuyue is incorporated into my Great Qin territory, how can these people of Chu live in peace!"
"Wuyue is not only useless to Qin, but will even become a hindrance to my Great Qin!"
"It will make my Great Qin's already exhausted national strength worse!"
Hearing Wei Liao's words, all the court officials of the Great Qin, including Ying Zheng, sighed softly.
Today's Great Qin seems to be in a state of turmoil, but in fact it is in danger.
Now the Great Qin has difficulty even governing its current territory, let alone adding a piece of Wuyue where many big families gather!
If the Qin Dynasty fails to deal with Wu and Yue, the Qin Dynasty will be destroyed by Chu, but the Qin Dynasty will also be destroyed by Chu!
Just when the Qin Dynasty's monarch and ministers were silent, the messenger suddenly spoke weakly: "Great, Great King, can I say something?"
Ying Zheng suppressed his irritability and said softly: "You can speak frankly!"
The messenger hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, after destroying Helu City, Chang'an Jun summoned all the people in Chu to discuss matters, hoping that the people in Chu can raise the King of Chu again."
"However, the people in Chu refused at the cost of their lives, and swore with the honor of their clan that they would never rebel, let alone seek to restore their country."
"As far as I know, the people of Qu, Zhao, Dou, Cheng and others all want to send envoys to Xianyang, and are willing to send all the children of the main line to Xianyang City, just to ask the king to recall Chang'an Jun."
"But these messengers are trapped by Chang'an Jun, so they failed to go."
Wei Liao: Huh? ? ?
Ministers: !!!
How did Ying Chengjiao bully the great families in Chu?
Ying Zheng asked hurriedly: "Do the people in Chu really have such intentions?"
The messenger garrison chief bowed solemnly: "I dare not bully you! Your Majesty, please summon Chang'an Jun to ask about this matter."
The Qin king and his ministers were worried about whether the great families in Chu would live a peaceful life.
But the great families in Chu were more worried that Ying Chengjiao would suspect that they would not live a peaceful life!
In order to escape the clutches of Ying Chengjiao, the great families in Chu even held their main lineage children in Xianyang City!
Still turmoil?
Isn't it good to be alive!
Ying Zheng laughed heartily: "Great! Great!"
"If all the people in Chu moved their main clans to Xianyang, they would be able to maintain peace for a while."
"If the prince really has such a deterrent effect on the people of Chu, Wuyue can at least maintain peace for three to five years!"
"The worries of Wei Aiqing are also resolved!"
Although this still cannot cure the rebellious hearts of the great families in Chu, it can at least buy Daqin three to five years of peace.
And as long as there are three to five years, Daqin will have a chance to solve this matter!
Wei Liao's complexion looked better, but it was only better.
Hearing what Ying Zheng said, Wei Liao shook his head bitterly: "The unrest in Wu and Yue is just one of the worries that my Great Qin needs to face now."
"In addition to the worries of internal unrest, my Great Qin has more external troubles!"
"Now that Chu is destroyed, Qi will no longer have a strong enemy in the south, and it is very likely to betray the alliance."
"Yan and Zhao will feel that the lips and teeth are cold, and will ally with Qi to attack my Great Qin!"
"May I ask the king, does the current Great Qin have the national strength to fight the three countries?"
After this, the king and ministers of Qin were silent again.
Although the autumn harvest is imminent, the poor harvest last year caused the national treasury to run out of grain.
If Qi does not send the subsequent grain and grass, then even after the autumn harvest, the grain and grass of Great Qin will not be enough to support Great Qin to fight a war.
The new generation of young and strong people in Great Qin has not grown up yet, and the newly annexed land has not yet returned, and Qin cannot make full use of its people's strength.
If a war really breaks out now, Great Qin will not be able to withstand it!
Ying Zheng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "That's why I need your help even more!"
"Now that the Great Qin is in danger, I..."
Before Ying Zheng finished speaking, a loud shout suddenly sounded from a distance.
"Is the King of Qin here?"
"Foreign ministers want to see the King of Qin!"
Liang Gan looked around and whispered: "It's the envoy Chunyu Hu from Qi and the envoy Ju Wu from Yan."
Ying Zheng's heart skipped a beat.
The messengers of Ying Chengjiao and Wang Jian deliberately delayed time on the road, but the messengers of Yan and Qi would not deliberately slow down, but would instead deliver the news at full speed.
In other words, the King of Qi and the King of Yan may have known the fact that the State of Chu had been destroyed, and gave instructions to the envoys stationed in Qin!
Ying Zheng said solemnly: "My dear ministers, please correct the power of our Great Qin to shock other countries!"
The courtiers such as Wei Zhuang bowed solemnly: "Yes!"
They knew very well what Ying Zheng meant.
To put it bluntly, just don't show your fear!
Although the current Qin can't afford a big war, everyone needs to put on a bluffing front to scare off Qi and Yan's desire to fight!
Wei Liao also knew that this was a critical moment, so he quickly stood up, adjusted his expression, and bowed solemnly: "Yes, sir!"
